Faux Spring Day

Let’s spring a little Spring today. I know we are knee deep in Valentine’s Day hoorah but I am crazy for Spring to get here. Aren’t you? So I am sharing a painting I have that hasn’t found its permanent home yet here. I have hung it several places but I am not quite sure where it will live yet. I know some of you like to rearrange your art and I do some but if it looks good I usually leave it alone. But for now we can pretend Spring has arrived.

I bought it at a consignment store a few years back. When I saw it I gasped. Florals just do that to me. So I didn’t hesitate to buy it because I thought it was so pretty. It’s signed by Jack Swift. I don’t have any knowledge other than that. Isn’t there a musician named that? No, I am thinking of Taylor Swift and Jack White, I guess.

It’s sitting on the buffet right now. So Spring is just a glance away.

It’s a fairly tall painting and photographing it with the flowers under it can be a bit tricky.

Played around with turning the painting around and facing the old mirror.
